    Always bought these tires for my trucks. Last purchase I bought 2 tires and my SUV has been shaking a lot. Had balance done 2 times no luck. Called Continental they told me buy 2 more tires then send back bad tires and if they find a problem they will reimburse me which could take months. No thanks. Will never buy again.

    I made an appointment November 21, 2024 to have new Continental tires and misc repairs done on my Subaru Outback. The dealer wasn't able to get the car in till December 11, 2024. Upon completion I went to submit the $110 Continental Tire Rebate for the purchase of four tires. The rebate site said"expired", program ended November 30, 2024. I contacted Continental Tire customer service and provided proof that the repair was scheduled on November 21, 2024. The request was denied, even though the tire replacement was scheduled during the rebate period.

      Very disappointed in Continental. Placed an order on Tire Rack for 4 Viking Contact 7 tires mounted and balanced on 4 new rims. When trying to submit the rebate, found an installation receipt was required. While telling Continental customer service I put the mounted tires on my vehicle myself, (being already mounted on rims) I was told I didn't qualify for the rebate. I offered to sign a separate document, provide pictures with the tires on my vehicle, all fell on deaf ears. I went through the same scenario 4 years ago for my previous vehicle and had no issues with the rebate. Luckily my tires/rims hadn't shipped yet and I was able to cancel the order. Terrible customer service from Continental for a returning customer, never again will I go through this aggravation.

      This was the first set of Continental tires and it was very disappointing. Had them installed on a 2021 Honda pilot touring model. Tires appeared to be wearing and performing well however one day when the car was parked and not running one of the tires blew doing 4000.00 worth of damage to the car. Of course I contacted continental however they assumed no responsibility. Tires had 8000 miles on them. I trashed the other three tires and went back to Michelin. I am an old man and never in my life has a tire blown while sitting in the driveway. Do yourself a favor and stay away from continental tires!!!

      I would NOT buy Continental Tire ever again. These tires are defective. All my tires have slice on them which continental claims it's curb damage because the factory aluminum rims show some scratches. I park my car inside my house. I don't park near curbs. I tried their claim process at discount tire which is trash.

      Continental Tires were on my used Volvo (less than 40K miles with 2 brand new tires on the back) when I purchased it less than 6 months ago. Two nights ago my son was driving my car on the highway when the right rear tire, one of the new tires, blew. See image attached. There were no obstructions on the road. The tow truck tech said this looked like a manufacturer defect. We are lucky no one was hurt! I've never seen anything like this before!!

      Have a 2024 Ford Maverick that was equipped with Continental Pro Contact 225/65/17 OEM tires. After 13k miles noticed how tires were wearing. Had 3-4 32nds left. Called continental and filed claim. They instructed where I had to go and get inspected. Did so and they offered a prorated discount on same tire. It was sad and a waste of my time. They were nice on phone when called. Will not consider their products after this.

      I've had these tires for roughly 5,000 miles (~3 months). One thing I can say that as good as these tires are on dry surfaces, they are equally as BAD on wet surfaces. They lose traction on the slightest of wet roads and will hydroplane across puddles...even at LOW speeds. Borderline dangerous to drive in wet weather, I'm taking them back to exchange them for a different brand.
